Will it work with my machine?

Overview

Inspired by the illustrative bird trend, this simple but classic shape is perfect for papercraft and home décor projects. Whether you want to add detail to your best wishes cards or create a classic home décor piece to brighten your home.

We've taken the most popular designs from our Thinlits and Framelits collections and made them mini. These small dies are versatile and practical; the perfect embellishments for all kinds of papercraft creations.

Thinlits create dazzling detailed shapes for more creative cardmaking and papercrafting projects. These wafer-thin chemically-etched die sets are designed to cut, emboss or stencil a single sheet of cardstock, paper, metallic foil or vellum. They are simple to use, compact and portable for cutting at home or on the go. Use them for enhanced intricacy and to add a special touch of inspiration to all your projects.

The Thinlits dies in this set are compatible with the BIGkick, Big Shot and Vagabond machines.

To cut, the sandwich requires use of a pair of Cutting Pads and the machine's included Platform; when using the Essentials Platform or Solo Platform & Shim, the Extended Adapter or Solo Adapter is required. Because of their intricacy, Thinlits dies may require up to three passes to cut. If extra ejection is needed for easier separation of the die-cut from the design, place wax paper between the Thinlits die and your material and then cut.

These die can also emboss when the machine's included Platform is combined with an Impressions Pad and Silicone Rubber sheet. The diagrams on the Platform offer easy guidelines about how to make the perfect Sizzix sandwich.

To stencil, place the die over desired material and apply ink or chalk to the die indentations. This technique can be used alone or to enhance embossed designs.
